Lint Skill

Run linter and formatter, fix auto-fixable issues.

Protocol

1. Read lint command

Read claude/build.md for the lint and format commands.

2. Run formatter check (non-destructive)

# Example: npx biome check . 2>&1 | tail -30
# Example: black --check . 2>&1 | tail -20

3. Run linter

# Example: npx eslint . --max-warnings 0 2>&1 | tail -40
# Example: ruff check . 2>&1 | tail -30

4. Auto-fix safe issues

# Example: npx biome check --write . 2>&1 | tail -20
# Example: black . && ruff check --fix . 2>&1 | tail -20

5. Review remaining issues

For issues that can't be auto-fixed:

• Understand the rule being violated
• Fix the root cause (not by disabling the rule)
• Only disable a rule if you understand exactly why it's a false positive

6. Re-run to confirm clean

# Run the same check commands again — must exit 0

7. Report

Lint: PASS — 0 errors, 0 warnings
Format: PASS

or

Lint: FAIL — 3 errors, 5 warnings
  - error: ... (fixed)
  - warning: ... (fixed)
  Remaining: 0 (all resolved)

Rules

• NEVER suppress a lint rule without a written justification in a comment
• NEVER "fix" lint by converting errors to warnings
• Pre-existing lint issues: document them, do NOT fix unrelated issues
• Only fix lint issues introduced by the current change (unless asked to do a lint pass)
